13 Other things the Bible bans that pretty much all Christians do anyway
The main argument used by those who appose same sex marriage is "the bible bans it." Well, here's a list of thirteen things the bible bans that all the people who say they are against same sex marriage do on a daily basis.
Tattoos; Leviticus 19:28 states, “Ye shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor print any marks upon you: I am the LORD.” I have a sister who is apposed to same sex marriage but has a tattoo. hmmmmmmm.
Rounded haircuts; Leviticus 19:27 states, “Ye shall not round the corners of your heads, neither shalt thou mar the corners of thy beard.”
Men with injured private parts entering churches; Deuteronomy 23:1 states, “He that is wounded in the stones, or hath his privy member cut off, shall not enter into the congregation of the LORD.” Even though most castrations were done by the church.
Consulting psychics; Leviticus 19:31 states, “Regard not them that have familiar
spirits, neither seek after wizards, to be defiled by them: I am the LORD your God.”My mom actually believes this psychic stuff but she is apposed to same sex marriage
Gossiping; Leviticus 19:16 states, “Thou shalt not go up and down as a talebearer among thy people: neither shalt thou stand against the blood of thy neighbor; I am the LORD.”Well there goes all the tabloid TV shows and magazines. Not to mention talking about co workers around the water cooler
Wives helping their husbands in a fight; Deuteronomy 25:11-12 state, “When men strive together one with another, and the wife of the one draweth near for to deliver her husband out of the hand of him that smiteth him, and putteth forth her hand, and taketh him by the secrets then thou shalt cut off her hand, thine eye shall not pity her.
Eating ham; Leviticus 11:7-8 read, “And the swine, though he divide the hoof, and be clovenfooted, yet he cheweth not the cud, he is unclean to you. Of their flesh shall ye not eat, and heir carcase shall ye not touch; they are unclean to you.” how many Christians do you know who eat ham on Easter? My family does and they appose same sex marriage.
Children cursing their parents; Exodus 21:17 states, “And he that curseth his father, or his mother, shall surely be put to death.”I know many children who would be put to death my self included if this were actually enforced.
Getting remarried after getting divorced; Mark 10:11-12 state, “Whosoever putteth away his wife and marrieth another, committeth adultery: and whosoever marrieth her that is put away from her husband committeth adultery.”
Working on the sabbath; Exodus 31:14 states, “Ye shall keep the sabbath therefore; for it is holy unto you: everyone that defileth it shall surely be put to death…” I'd like to see someone try to use this to get out of working on Sunday. I can hear it now, "Sorry I can't work on Sundays because if I do I'll be put to death." You're probably not going to get very far using that one but how many people do you know who appose same sex marriage that also work on Sunday's?
Women speaking in church; 1 Corinthians 14:34 states, “Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak…” God sounds a little sexist doesn't he? My mother is apposed to same sex marriage but she was a Sunday school teacher and has held office in her church.
Eating lobster, shrimp, and assorted seafood; Leviticus 10 states, “And all that have no fins and scales in the seas, and in the rivers, of all that move in the waters, and of any living thing which is in the waters, they shall be an abomination unto you.” If you've ever eaten at a Red Lobster or any sea food place or even just gone fishing you've broken this one.
Losing your virginity before marriage; Deuteronomy 22:20-21 state, “But if this thing be true, and the tokens of virginity be not found for the damsel: Then they shall bring out the damsel to the door of her father’s house, and the men of her city shall stone her with stones that she die…”Most of the women I know would be dead if this were enforced.
A couple more things the bible says of note, If a woman is raped she is supposed to marry her rapist. God sure does treat women poorly doesn't he? and if you handle pig skin on the Sabbath you will be put to death. That would make Sunday afternoon football real interesting wouldn't it.
So you can see that trying to claim something should be illegal because the bible says so is just plain silly. I'm going to guess that most of those who believe same sex marriage is wrong because the bible says so also have broken most if not all of the laws listed above.
